Strana 176 - What needs my Shakespeare for his honoured bones, The labour of an age in piled stones, Or that his hallowed relics should be hid Under a star-ypointing pyramid? Dear son of memory, great heir of Fame, What need'st thou such weak witness of thy name? Thou in our wonder and astonishment Hast built thyself a livelong monument.
Strana 357 - Stern o'er each bosom reason holds her state, With daring aims irregularly great. Pride in their port, defiance in their eye, I see the lords of human kind pass by...
Strana 419 - Until he came unto the Wash Of Edmonton so gay; And there he threw the Wash about, On both sides of the way, Just like unto a trundling mop, Or a wild goose at play. At Edmonton his loving wife From the balcony spied Her tender husband, wondering much To see how he did ride. " Stop, stop, John Gilpin! Here's the house!"

Strike in, strike in — the sparks begin to dull their rustling red, Our hammers ring with sharper din, our work will soon be sped : Our Anchor soon must change his bed of fiery rich array. For a hammock at the roaring bows, or an oozy couch of clay ; Our Anchor soon must change the lay of merry...
Strana 34 - tis thy delight, thy glory day by day, Through sable sea and breaker white, the giant game to play — But shamer of our little sports ! forgive the name I gave — A fisher's joy is to destroy — thine office is to save. O lodger in the sea-kings...
Strana 161 - ... sed nil dulcius est, bene quam munita tenere edita doctrina sapientum templa serena, despicere unde queas alios passimque videre errare atque viam palantis quaerere vitae, certare ingenio, contendere nobilitate, noctes atque dies niti praestante labore ad summas emergere opes rerumque potiri.
